Dragonwolf webcomic page 1: The Blackwolf Samurai I’ll never forget how excited I was to finally have a comic book page in my hand of something I had written. It hasn’t changed in 20+ years either.

Dragonwolf webcomic page 2: The Blackwolf Samurai part 1 Here we are on page 2 of Dragonwolf.

Dragonwolf webcomic page 6: The Blackwolf Samurai This page is a strange one. It’s definitely one that could have been edited better, and shortened, but beyond that, I had lost some text.
